Outreach
The Michaux Conservancy believes organizations should take a regional approach to address environmental issues. We believe working as part of a larger group will help streamline environmental programs created in Charleston. Therefore, we work jointly with the regional initiatives listed below.
Michaux is a primary education partner with the Ashley Cooper
Stormwater Education Consortium (ECSEC). ECSEC supports the Environmental Protection Agency's National Pollution
Discharge Elimination System II requirements. The requirements call for public involvement and public education for communities with untreated stormwater.

Michaux is partnered with the South Carolina Coastal Information Network (SCCIN). SCCIN is a collaboration of state natural resource agencies, coastal regional governments, universities, and other organizations. This collaboration maximizes delivery of quality training and educational material to coastal decision makers, community planners, and local officials through a web-based information portal.
